    This is honestly the worst foundation I've ever tried that I remember. Just awful. It doesn't apply nicely, it doesn't stay on the skin for long, hard to build up to get decent coverage, oxidizes,...

    This is not a very good foundation, which is surprising considering most of nars products are extremely good. Despite being a matte product this foundation tends to get very oily so you will have...

    Not impressed with this foundation. Initially, I was to buy the sheer glow foundation in Syracruse (which they matched me up with) but my sister accidentally brought me Sheer Glow in Stromboli. I...

    This is one of the worst foundation I ever used. First of all, I got matched to this product (but in Sheer Glow) in the colour Fiji by a Nars salesperson at Sephora. I told him I though it was too...

    I bought this foundation with high expectations. This foundation isn't sheer, it has one of the thickest formula I've ever seen. I have an oily T zone, and the rest of my face is normal but this...

    This product was very disappointing. The consistency is so thin and difficult to get a nice even coverage. It is very streaky. It accentuates dry patches, but then again it is a matte foundation...

    At first, i wasn't a fan because it looked pretty patchy on my face which was odd because i always moisturized and applied a primer. The perfect match was Punjab(3). Once i changed the moisturized,...
